AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0014]Applicants have found that triclosan may be functionalized with safe and biocompatible molecules such as glycolic acid, lactic acid, p-dioxanone, and / or caprolactone monomers. By careful selection of the biocompatible molecules, the hydrolysis profiles of these new functionalized triclosan compounds are more highly controllable. Other compound properties that are favorably affected include increased solubility, improved bioavailability, improved efficacy, and enhanced functionality.
[0016]Because, in certain embodiments, the functionalized triclosan compounds of the present invention retain the innate properties of the active triclosan compound, they may be used, in many instances, in applications wherein triclosan and / or triclosan compounds are typically employed. For example, they may serve as enhanced antimicrobial agents that find use, for example, in controlled release preparations, cosmetic applications, and flavors. They may also be employed, for example, in coatings for biomedical devices, such as stents, absorbable implantable devices, and / or surgical sutures, and / or for biodegradable chewing gum, nutriceuticals, or drug delivery. In addition, the active portion of the functionalized triclosan has improved bioavailability and / or increased solubility. The compounds of the present invention permit the user to better control the degradation and / or target delivery of the active triclosan component. The compounds may be further reacted and, in many cases, further polymerized, expanding their usefulness.

Problems solved by technology

While triclosan compounds have various known beneficial uses, they generally are insoluble or partially soluble in water or the human body and are difficult to hydrolyze.
They are also very difficult to polymerize in the phenolic state.

example 1

[5-Chloro-2-(2,4-dichloro-phenoxy)-phenoxy]-acetic acid methyl ester

[0175]

[0176]To a mixture of triclosan (50 grams, 173 mmol), anhydrous K2CO3 (100 grams, 723 mmol), sodium iodide (10 grams, 66.7 mmol) and disodium phosphate (10 grams, 70 mmol) in anhydrous acetone (500 mL) was added methyl chloro acetate (30 grams, 276 mmol). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 16 hours. Acetone was distilled and water (600 mL) was added. Crude 1 was extracted into ethyl acetate, dried over Na2SO4, distilled and purified by column chromatography on silica gel using hexane as eluant to give pure 1 (45 grams, 72.1%) as a white powder. m.p: 52-53° C.
